  1. aIncluding age and gender as variables never dropped from models and when are compared with a baseline model with AUROC = 0.5. P ≤ 0.10 in bold (stepwise threshold).
  2. *All SNPs showing a significant association with erosive disease (P < 0.10) were initially added to the model in the discovery population.
  3. A sort analysis in the discovery population revealed that this model showed an AUC value systematically higher than those observed in 50.000 randomized models:
  4. Average AUC of null distribution (50.000 models) = 0.644
  5. Z score = 6.79, PZ_score-value_(50.000perm) = 5.6710−12.
  6. ϮAll SNPs were forced to be included in the replication population with the exception of the CYP2C9rs1057910 that was included due to the impossibility to calculate association estimates for the CYP2C9rs1799853 SNP.
